Blood shot: Kim Kardashian gets a vampire facial
And it's gory ...
Before she began incubating the fruit of Kanye West's loins, Kim Kardashian attempted to maintain a youthful glow by undergoing a procedure that left her face looking like a raw piece of sirloin.
On Sunday night's episode of "Kourtney & Kim Take Miami," she took a page from the "you have to suffer to be beautiful" handbook by getting a so-called vampire facial (also known as the vampire facelift).
"I love trying anything that makes you look and feel youthful," Kim said of the procedure, which was suggested by her BFF, publicist Jonathan Cheban. "Basically, they draw your blood, spin it in a machine just to get the platelets out, and then put the blood all over your face."
And by "put," she means inject, a painful process that had Kardashian saying "ouch!"
“Oh, my God," huffed Kim. "I will never get a facelift if it feels like that!"
While the efficacy of the treatment remains somewhat controversial, it's getting plenty of PR. In addition to Kim's promotion efforts, the vampire facelift was part of the $48,000 gift basket handed out to Oscar nominees.

Oscar nominees got a gift basket worth more than many people earn in a year yet people in this country are homeless, struggling to make ends meet, living on junk food because they do not have access to healthy foods and struggling to survive. And, the majority of the comments center around Kim Kardashian being a vain idiot. Oscar nominees make A LOT of $$$, they do not need $48,000 gift baskets, where is the disgust with that?
